Probability of a freckle on any limb is going to increase with age. I’m 4/4, maybe 8/8 if you count both sides of each limb. So yeah, pretty good chance that others born before 1990 are going to have a freckle there.
Yeah, the “chilling effect” is a big problem. I’m sure the creators of TemTem and other alternatives are getting nervous.
I guess we’ll never know whether Palworld could have avoided this with a different art style or varying the catching mechanics more.
And we would be talking about it, if Palworld was NOT such a blatant ripoff of Pokemon.
It’s like using the OJ Simpson trial as an example of how messed up the LAPD is. Is the LAPD fucked up? Yes. Is OJ Simpson someone that we should be sympathetic to? Not so much.
If they start going after games that are NOT blatant ripoffs of their IP, then yes, I’m much more concerned about the abuses of the patent system. Patent trolling IS a real problem, I’m just not sure if Palworld is the right catalyst for people to be sympathetic about patent trolling.
Yeah, they could. However, I think if they DID sue Digimon, TemTem, Monster Hunters, etc using the same patent trolling tactics, they’d probably have a harder time winning, because those games haven’t (as blatantly) copied Nintendo. I suspect that’s why they haven’t done so.
Yes… technically. But clearly with those broad parents the could also technically go after other monster catching games that have been around forever. I think the point is that Palworld poked the bear a little too much, particularly with the character designs which look to me like they fed all 1000+ Pokemon into generative AI and slapped the results into their game. Are they getting sued for character design? No. Do I think that is a big part of WHY they are being sued? Absolutely.
The point of the Senate was to get states to ratify the constitution. That’s it. Smaller states didn’t want to agree to join a union where they gave up power to a federal government dominated by the larger states.
The Senate should really be abolished, and the # of representatives should be doubled to temper the impacts of gerrymandering. If smaller states want more power against larger states, they can work together with other smaller states to form a voting bloc in the house.
This is the kind of thing that both parties should be able to agree on, anyone defending this ridiculous system is likely some kind of corporate shill.
Having a federal website to file has been a great step in the right direction. What’s preventing us from going further? Oh, Republicans think it’s anti-business because then TurboTax can’t make their billions, got it.
Does that include running Windows containers? It seems like the alternatives don’t support those.
I don’t think you even need Docker licenses to run Linux containers, but unfortunately I need to deal with this because I have some legacy software running in windows containers.
Interdimensional TV on Rick and Morty
He already said this in the last debate, this time he went even further and explicitly used the term “execute”.
I’m not sure how else it would hold together
So selfless
The “four days” part seems sensationalized… sounds like she clocked in on Friday and was found on Tuesday. So it seems like at most she wasn’t missed for one business day.
Hmm, it sounds like you need to use something like Calibre to export all your books to a single standard format.
I’ve been doing P90X because I like lifting and hate cardio. I like the structure a lot because there’s a ton of lifting but there’s also a pliometrics day and a kenpi day for cardio that isn’t boring.
It seems like he is just puffing out his chest to hide his belly. Probably because he knew he was on camera.
